Hello! My name is Whitney Dennis and I am Shelby's daughter. I am currently wrapping up my CFY in the Hays school district and have loved this profession already! My mom asked me for some help with putting together and designing a blog for the SLPs in your service center. This is the beginning of your new blog! This process can be intimidating at first because it is completely new and foreign to you, but you catch on quickly I promise.
Blogs can be used for many, many purposes and your blog will be no different. I have set up several different things that you can use to help facilitate communication between each other, look at other speech blogs, and so forth. So here is a little bit about 'Communication Connections.'
Searching the Blog
One of the first things that you'll be able to do is search the blog. If you are looking for something specific, but don't want to go through every post, then you can type it into the search box and every post with that topic will pop up. It should help you cut down time scouring through this blog for something specific. In order for this to work, you will also want to use the 'Labels' function. I have created some for you already, but will discuss that more later.
Blog Archive List
The next item on the left-hand-side of the blog is your 'Blog Archive' list. This will list the blogs you post every month and year. This is another great way to find posts quickly.
Labels
Your 'Labels' is the next item. These are categories on your blog. After you post a blog post, you can categorize the post. So if your post was about articulation and grammar, then you would want to categorize under those categories. Labels will also make it easier to find information quickly about a certain topic you are looking for or are curious about.

Blog List
You will then notice a header called 'Our Blog List.' This list houses a number of different speech-language pathology blogs that you can click on from your very own blog. I have used several of these blogs to come up with new and fun therapy ideas for my students. There are tons of blogs out there and I would be happy to add anymore that people enjoy reading and looking at!

Following by Email
Then there is a place to 'Follow By Email.' This is how you all got the notification of this blog post. Every time someone posts a blog post on here, you will get an email notification letting you know. That way you'll never miss a new post from one of your fellow SLPs.
Comments
At the end of every blog post, you will also have the option to comment on that specific post. This will be a great way to respond back to someone's post about a new therapy idea, inservice meetings, etc. However, please remember that this blog is public and can be viewed by anyone on the internet. Please remember to keep messages, comments, and posts confidential.

Please let me know if there is anything else that I can do to help with this new process! Blogging is a great way to keep in contact and share wonderful ideas!
